Removing Representative Tony Gonzalez of Texas from certain standing committees of the House of Representatives.

Key Points

• Representative Luna introduced a proposal to remove Representative Tony Gonzalez from two major committees: the Committee on Appropriations and the Committee on Homeland Security.
• The resolution claims that Representative Gonzalez did not follow House rules that require members to behave in a way that reflects well on Congress. It points to general conduct standards rather than listing specific incidents.
• If this passes, Representative Gonzalez would lose his seat on the committees that decide how the government spends money and how it protects the country's borders. This would reduce his power to influence these specific national issues.
